NASA spends millions designing and building spacecraft for its missions. The dependence on software is growing as spacecraft become more complex. With the increasing dependence on...
As VLSI fabrication technology progresses to 65nm feature sizes and smaller, transistors no longer operate as ideal switches. This motivates the verification of digital circuits us...
A typical problem formal verification faces is the size of the model of a system being verified. Even for a small system, the state space of the model tends to grow exponentially (...
Automated verification is a technique for establishing if certain properties, usually expressed in temporal logic, hold for a system model. The model can be defined using a high-l...
Abstract. Intel is applying formal verification to various pieces of mathematical software used in Merced, the first implementation of the new IA-64 architecture. This paper discus...
